The algorithm winning TIG's neural net optimizer challenge right now was mined in 24 hours by a beta swarm with no formal maths training.

Recap of the private beta swarms ahead of our launch this week! Image
Until recently, improving algorithms had a significant bottleneck - you had to be a researcher - meaning the pool of contributors was extremely small.

AI changes that.

You’ve probably seen multiple articles talking about the various maths breakthroughs that have occurred using AI.

If AI can solve a problem that has stood for decades, it can improve an algorithm!

But to really remove the bottleneck, you need something more ….

You need an open layer that coordinates, verifies and rewards participants so someone can go from doing it as a hobby to doing it as a full time job.

TIG is that layer and is perfectly poised to capture the AI x Maths boom

We wrote about algorithm mining earlier this year:

x.com/tigfoundation/…
So the first step for Prometheus was simple:

Allow anyone to discover algorithms in a 'plug and play' fashion

Press start and walk away.

Your agent does the rest.

..and thats exactly what we built.

You launch an agent, it joins a swarm, uses the LLM to improve an algorithm and if it gets stuck, i.e. stops making progress, it gets sent inspiration either from another agent in the swarm or its own tacit knowledge file.

In 1923, Canadian scientists Frederick Banting & Charles Best won the Nobel Prize for the discovery of insulin.

They decided to give away the patent for free because they wanted insulin to be available to diabetics at no charge.

When Banting and Best turned over the patent for production, they agreed to receive only $1 each in compensation.  Since then, drug companies monopolized the insulin market and now charge diabetics $500 per month to survive.  THIS ISN'T HEALTHCARE,  THIS IS EXTORTION.

I've made a genetics app, which is designed so that #MECFS & #LongCovid patients can upload a genetics file & it will scan for genetic variants related to my hypothesis which I've developed further over the last year

@lifeanalytics @DanMissailidis The central idea is that oxidised or glycated LDL may undergo excessive phosphatidylcholine (PC) hydrolysis by PLA2 enzymes, producing excess lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPC).

@lifeanalytics @DanMissailidis @JackHadfield14 @Gmwetz @KatBoniface @Dan_Wyke @neurostingl @chydorina @fidjissimo @vijayiyer312 Albumin normally helps buffer LysoPC in plasma. If albumin is low, oxidised, or bound to NEFAs, it's ability to buffer higher than normal levels of LysoPC may be reduced leaving more LysoPC on oxLDL, creating a more damaging particle.

6 signs Allah is showing you to leave that person immediately
Not every person is meant to stay in your life forever.

Sometimes walking away is not losing someone, it is protecting your peace, your values, and your relationship with Allah.
1. They take you away from Allah.

If being around them weakens your iman, affects your salah, or makes you compromise your values, it’s a sign to reflect deeply.

In case you haven't been paying attention, IWA would have died in 1999 if it weren't for my money getting us into the blue barn in Charlestown (and then back in the building after fire marshall issue.) I carried us to the @smartmarkvideo era. I was recognized as the co-owner.
For 12 years, I put my blood, sweat, tears, and my money, and my money, and my money, and my money into IWA. Defended it against all haters. IWA was my life. It was the only thing in my life. Never looked for greener pastures. Stayed loyal while everyone else came & went.
Then I finally left. I kept my mouth shut. I went on with my life. But I stayed in contact with @nickmaniwa and wished nothing but the best for IWA. 100 opportunities to pile on and never did. I stayed in exile and tried to do the penance for all IWA sins whether mine or not.

Why does Allah delay something you’ve been making du’a for, like marriage?

Understanding this could change the way you view every unanswered du’a.
We often assume:

If something is good, it should come quickly.

If it’s halal, it should be easy.

If we make du’a, it should happen immediately.

But Allah never promised that every blessing would come without waiting.
The Prophet ﷺ said:

“The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allah loves a people, He tests them.” (Tirmidhi 2396)

At first, that’s difficult to accept.

Loneliness doesn’t feel like love.

Delay doesn’t feel like mercy.

Silence doesn’t feel like care.

Someone asked an Imam a question that many hearts carry: “Why are those who are already struggling tested even more?”

The answer changes how we look at pain
The Imam explained:

“Do not think every test is a sign that Allah has turned away from a person.

Sometimes a trial is the very thing that brings a person closer to Allah.”

The answer changes how we look at pain.
Sometimes we assume that hardship means Allah is displeased with someone.

We think:
“They have suffered enough.”
“Why another test?”
“Why does it keep getting heavier?”

But the reality is that trials are not always a sign of rejection.

EXC: Leaked Document Names Mainstream Journalists Taking Pay-For-Play Trips To China

A Xi-praised influence group flew 26 elite journalists to China, then privately celebrated changing how they viewed and covered Beijing.

I’m naming names. 🧵 Image
Xi Jinping praised C100 as a “friendly organization” making “untiring efforts” to advance CCP influence in the U.S.

The stated objective of the trips was to “improve perceptions of China.” Image
Leaked internal documents show delegation prices starting at $60,000.

C100 also promoted that 70% of American opinion leaders who visited China returned with improved views.

Its targets came from The New York Times, Washington Post, Politico, NPR, PBS, TIME and more. Image

Not every struggle is caused by jinn.
And not every struggle should be viewed only through a medical lens.

Islam teaches us balance.

Here’s how:
ADHD, anxiety, depression, and emotional struggles are real. A person facing them is not automatically possessed, lacking iman, or being punished by Allah.

We need to stop reducing every unseen or emotional struggle to one explanation.
At the same time, believing in jinn and ruqyah is part of our aqeedah. Islam does not ask us to deny what Allah and His Messenger ﷺ have taught us.

The problem comes when we choose extremes.

Your iPhone shoots better photos than most cameras. Apple just leaves half the settings switched off out of the box.

Here are the 7 to change tonight:👇
1/ Turn On The Grid

The single fastest way to take a better photo. It lines your shot up on the rule of thirds.

Go to: Settings → Camera → turn on Grid.

Put your subject where the lines cross, not dead centre. Instantly looks composed instead of a snapshot.
2/ Shoot In The Highest Quality

Most iPhones are set to a compressed format that quietly softens your photos.

Go to: Settings → Camera → Formats → choose "Most Compatible" only if you need it, otherwise leave it on High Efficiency and turn on ProRAW if your phone has it.

Go to: Settings → Camera → turn on Apple ProRAW for full detail on Pro models.

Second in the Series - April 23, 2026.

Morning sitting.

Second Reading opens.

This is where the real debate on Bill 29 actually starts.

Here's who said what.

Verified against the actual transcript.

These are not short.

Unroll at end for all.

Let's Begin.

🧵 Image
Sponsor - Hon. adriana laGrange, Minister of Primary and Preventative Health Services.

Moving second reading, her own words -

This bill reflects a clear and practical vision for health care in Alberta, one that is focused on access, grounded in evidence, and responsive to the realities facing Alberta patients today."

I'm going to disagree with her.
Her three stated pillars, verbatim.

Expanding preventative health testing access,

Improving timely access to essential medications "particularly for those living with addictions,"

And completing -

"the legislative framework required to support Alberta's refocused health care system."
